CPP STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT PRINCIPLES - AUGUST 2020

CHUBB PENSION PLAN STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT PRINCIPLES

INTRODUCTION 1. This Statement has been prepared by the Trustees of the Chubb Pension Plan (the Plan) to comply with:  the Pensions Act 1995, as amended by the Pensions Act 2004;  the Occupational Pension Schemes (Investment and Disclosure) (Amendment and Modification) Regulations 2018;  the Occupational Pension Schemes (Investment and Disclosure) (Amendment) Regulations 2019. 2. The Statement reflects the outcome of a review of the Plan’s investment strategy undertaken in February 2018 and advice on Liability Driven Investment received during 2019. As part of this review, the Trustees consulted Chubb Group Limited (the Company) and all the employing companies participating in the Plan. The Trustees are advised on investment matters by Barnett Waddingham LLP, who have reviewed this Statement. Barnett Waddingham is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. The Trustees consider them to be suitably qualified and experienced for this role. 3. The investment powers of the Trustees are set out in Clause 6.1 of the Definitive Trust Deed & Rules, dated 15 December 2010. This statement is consistent with those powers. 4. In producing this Statement, the Trustees have considered the findings of the Myners Review published in 2001 (including subsequent updates).

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT OF ASSETS 5.

The Trustees’ investment objective is to aim to ensure that the assets are sufficient to meet the liabilities over the long term. In so far as risk is at an acceptable level, the Trustees will aim to maximise the return on the assets to reduce the long-term costs of providing the Plan’s benefits. The investments are diversified between available investment categories and between geographic areas in order to limit the risk to the Plan. The Trustees recognise that risk is inherent in any investment activity. A multi-asset approach has been adopted, with appropriate attention paid to investment, covenant and funding risks, in order to achieve the level of investment return the Trustees have targeted for the Plan. The Trustees realise that a portfolio of long-dated government bonds would provide a low risk strategy, however, it would not achieve the targeted return. The Trustees take advice from the Plan's investment consultants and the Plan’s Actuary to ensure that this approach remains suitable for the Plan. 6. The Pensions Act 2004 introduced a Scheme Specific Funding Requirement with which the Plan has had to comply with effect from the 31 March 2006 actuarial valuation of the Plan. As at the date of the latest actuarial valuation, 31 March 2018, the Plan had a modest surplus, with a funding level of 104%. The discount rate adopted at the 31 March 2018 actuarial valuation was 0.8% per annum above the Bank of England gilt yield curve. 7. The Trustees obtain a quarterly funding update from the Plan’s Actuary to supplement the formal valuations that are carried out at no less than three yearly intervals, together with appropriate cash flow forecasts. As at 31 May 2020, the Plan’s funding level was estimated to be about 103%, based on the 31 March 2018 funding assumptions, but updated for current market conditions. 8. Based on the advice of their investment advisers and having regard to the suitability and diversification of the investments, the Trustees have decided that participating in the Chubb Common Investment Fund, which will pursue both a specialist and indexed investment strategy with a positive decision regarding asset allocation, will provide the target performance and is consistent with maintaining acceptable low levels of risk. 9. The trustee body of the Chubb Common Investment Fund largely consists of Trustee Directors of the Chubb Security Pension Fund and Trustees of the Chubb Pension Plan. This aims to ensure that the investment policy of the Chubb Common Investment Fund is consistent with the Plan’s investment policy. Under the terms of the Trust Deed of the Chubb Common Investment Fund, resolutions are passed on a simple majority of those voting. 10. The Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund provide quarterly performance and investment details to the Trustees of the Plan together with copies of all Trustee Minutes and decisions.

11. The long term asset allocation of the Chubb Common Investment Fund is determined by its Trustees, based on the requirements of the participating schemes. The Trustees of the Plan believe that the potential reward from investing in equities, on balance, justifies an equity content, given the Plan's liabilities are long-term in nature and allowing for the agreed funding strategy. The Trustees however believe that it is also appropriate to diversify the Plan's assets and to manage volatility in the funding position. The current long term target allocation agreed in November 2019 is set out below, and is consistent with delivering returns that are in line with the Plan’s funding strategy:

Target allocation

GROWTH ASSETS Equities Multi-asset funds

20.0% 15.0%

PROTECTION ASSETS Liability Driven Investment mandate

62.0% 26.5% 35.5%

Corporate bonds

Gilts*

3.0%

Cash

GRAND TOTAL

100.0%

*The gilts mandate utilises leverage through the use of gilt sale and repurchase agreements in order to achieve the liability hedging target (see below) Protection Assets The Liability Driven Investment (LDI) mandate is structured to hedge 70% of the interest rate and inflation exposure of the Plan’s liabilities assessed on the self-sufficiency basis, as set out in the Scheme Funding Report dated June 2019. The targeted hedge is being implemented in 10 monthly steps between February and November 2020. Equity Allocation The allocation to equities is split between a passive (indexed) sub-portfolio and an actively managed sub-portfolio. The actual split between these two equity sub-portfolios is not constrained.

In relation to passively managed equities, the long term target allocation, reaffirmed in February 2018, is as follows: Hedged Unhedged Total United Kingdom 0.0% 40.0% 40.0% Asia ex-Japan Developed 4.0% 4.0% 8.0% Japan 2.5% 2.5% 5.0% Europe ex-UK 9.0% 9.0% 18.0% North America 10.5% 10.5% 21.0% World Emerging Markets 0.0% 8.0% 8.0% Total 100.0% The Trustee is aware that the appropriate balance between different kinds of investments will vary over time and therefore the Plan’s asset allocation will be expected to change as its liability profile matures. 12. The asset allocation position will be monitored quarterly by the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund and the Trustees of the Plan. 13. In order to provide partial protection against significant falls in equity prices, the Trustees might from time to time implement particular policies, including the use of derivative based collars. The Trustees accept that there might be a cost to the Plan of implementing such policies, either by way of option premiums or by sacrificing potential upside performance. 14. The Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund delegate their investment duties to appointed specialist investment managers. 15. Cash withdrawals made from the Chubb Common Investment Fund will require the Trustees to encash a proportion of their unit holding in the Chubb Common Investment Fund. As the Plan’s cash flow is currently negative, the strategic long-term asset allocation includes a 3% allocation to cash, in order to help meet the Plan’s cashflow requirements. 16. Whilst the main Plan assets are invested in line with paragraph 11 above, uninvested cash required for the day to day benefit payments of the Plan is held in the Plan’s current bank account and is placed on call overnight. All Chubb Common Investment Fund cash balances, including those held by the investment managers in segregated accounts, are swept overnight by the global custodian, BNY Mellon, into its universal liquidity fund.

17. The Trustees believe that the investment strategy adopted is currently sufficient to address any reasonable risks that the long-term funding of the Plan will prove inadequate. The Trustees have also considered the risk of a shortfall of assets relative to the liabilities as determined if the Plan were to wind up. The Trustees recognise the potential volatility of equity prices and that the range of expected returns is greater for some asset classes than others. For certain asset classes the Trustees encourage the use of active investment managers by the Chubb Common Investment Fund, who take positive decisions within their investment brief, and recognise that this introduces a risk that they may underperform. However, the Trustees believe that this risk is outweighed by the potential gains from successful active management. Finally, to provide an additional measure of control of this risk, the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund also impose certain restrictions on the investment managers which are described below. 18. The following measures have been implemented to reduce the risks associated with making investments: Number of managers The Chubb Common Investment Fund’s investments are spread across five separate investment management companies, to gain the benefits of specialist skills in markets. One of these companies is a passive manager. The remaining four are active managers, with Insight managing both the Fund’s corporate bond and LDI mandates. This division facilitates control of the overall asset allocation and the level of risk resulting from the differing approaches, styles and specialisations of each manager. Risk versus the liabilities The majority of the Plan’s liabilities are linked to inflation. The policy is therefore to invest a substantial proportion of the assets in investments which are expected to exceed price inflation over long periods. Range of assets The Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund have set a Total Fund benchmark. This contains a wide range of asset classes suitable for a pension scheme. The Trustees review the distribution of assets quarterly. Custody The Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund ensure the separation of custody of the Fund’s assets from its investment managers and its officials by the employment of its independent global custodian, BNY Mellon. The Trustees have signed a global custody agreement with the custodian. Manager restrictions The Chubb Common Investment Fund’s Trustees’ agreement on the way the portfolio is managed with each fund manager contains a series of restrictions, which may be amended from time to time. The purpose of the restrictions is to

limit the risks from each individual investment and prevent unsuitable investment activity. Each fund manager must comply with these restrictions. Manager controls Powers of investment delegated to the fund managers must be exercised with a view to giving effect to the principles contained in this statement so far as is reasonably practicable. The manager will also ensure that suitable internal operating procedures are in place to control individuals making investments for the Chubb Common Investment Fund. ADDITIONAL VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS 19. Aegon, the brand name for Scottish Equitable plc, act as provider for investment of funds held in respect of Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs). Members are permitted to invest across a range of unit linked funds offered by Aegon, including guest funds. DIVERSIFICATION AND SUITABILITY OF INVESTMENTS AND THE DAY TO DAY MANAGEMENT OF THE ASSETS 20. It is the policy of the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund that the actively managed bond portfolios should have their assets in segregated funds held by a Global Custodian. Indexed portfolios and multi-asset class funds will normally be invested in pooled unitised vehicles. 21. The following principal restrictions apply to all investment managers within the Chubb Common Investment Fund unless held as part of a pooled investment vehicle. 21.1 No investment in Carrier Global Corporation, other than through an indexed fund. 21.2 No investment in Companies, other than CCIF Venture Limited, where the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund or the Trustees or Trustee directors of a participating scheme have a material interest or are a Director, other than through an indexed fund. 21.3 No use of derivatives except where agreed with the Trustees from time to time. 21.4 No stock lending. The Trustees monitor from time-to-time the employer-related investment content of their portfolio as a whole and will take steps to alter this should they discover this to be more than 5% of the portfolio. Typically this check is carried out annually by the Plan’s auditors. 22. No investment manager may invest in property either directly or via property unit trusts, other than the multi-asset pooled unitised vehicles. The Chubb Common Investment Fund is in the process of completely liquidating its residual 100% shareholding in the CCIF Venture Limited, which is a small property development company.

23 The Trustees of the Plan monitor the allocation between asset classes and geographical areas at its quarterly meetings and will advise the outcome of the review to the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund who are responsible for implementing any changes to policy. The Trustees recognise that regular rebalancing of the Fund to its long term asset allocation can be expensive in terms of both transaction and opportunity costs. The Trustees therefore permit the asset allocation to drift from the long term target. The Trustees have considered a more formal rebalancing policy, but concluded from their analysis that regular rebalancing neither improves returns nor reduces risk. The Trustees will however seek to review and, if necessary, rebalance the asset allocation on occasions where there is a significant inflow or outflow of payments in to or out of the Fund. The Trustees will formally review the long term asset allocation annually. The allocation to equities amongst the regions (paragraph 11 above) is, however, automatically rebalanced quarterly by the appointed investment manager. 24. The performance objective of each investment manager is as follows:- Equity Funds Legal & General Investment Management Ltd - to achieve the FTSE Index return for each specific region. First Eagle Amundi International Fund – to outperform the MSCI World Index. Multi-asset funds BlackRock Investment Managers Ltd- To outperform LIBOR 3 month by 3% per annum (after fees) over rolling 3 years. Ruffer Absolute Return Fund – To outperform LIBOR 3 month by 3% per annum (after fees) over rolling 3 years. Corporate Bonds Insight Investment Management Ltd – to manage the bonds using a “buy and maintain” approach with performance compared to the Markit iBoxx GBP Collateralised & Corporates 5+ Index. LDI Insight Investment Management Ltd – to manage the LDI portfolio in line with the Plan’s 70% Liability Hedging Target.

ENVIRONMENT, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE FACTORS, ETHICAL INVESTING, ENGAGEMENT AND VOTING RIGHTS 25. The Trustees believe that environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors, including management of climate-related risks, are potentially financially material and therefore have a policy to take these into account, alongside other factors, in the selection, retention and realisation of investments. However, these factors do not take precedence over other financial and non-financial factors, including but not limited to historical performance or fees. The Trustees may consider both financial and non-financial factors when selecting or reviewing the Plan’s investments. 26. The Trustees do not apply any specific ethical criteria to their investments. 27. As the Plan’s investments (except the Insight Bonds and LDI) are held in pooled funds, ESG considerations are set by each of the investment managers. The Plan’s investment managers will ultimately act in the best interests of the Plan’s assets to maximise returns for a given level of risk. The Trustees do not currently impose any specific ESG-related restrictions or requirements on the segregated mandate with Insight, so ESG considerations are determined at their discretion. The Trustees are aware of the approach that each of their investment managers take in relation to ESG considerations. 28. The Trustees believe that good stewardship and positive engagement can lead to improved governance and better risk-adjusted investor returns. The Trustees delegate the exercise of rights (including voting rights) attached to the Plan’s investments to the investment managers. All of the Plan’s managers except First Eagle are signatories to the UN Principles of Responsible Investment and the UK Stewardship Code. 29. In selecting, monitoring and reviewing their investment managers, where appropriate, the Trustees will consider the managers’ policies on engagement and how these policies have been implemented. 30. The Trustees have not considered it appropriate to take into account individual members’ views when establishing the policy on environmental, social and governance factors, engagement and voting rights. INCENTIVISATION OF INVESTMENT MANAGERS 31. The investment managers are remunerated by fees based on the market value of the assets under management or liabilities being hedged in respect of the LDI mandate. 32. The investment managers are selected so that, in aggregate, the portfolio’s returns are expected to allow the Trustees’ objectives to be met. 33. The investment managers are not directly incentivised to align the approach they adopt with any non-financial policies or objectives set by the Trustees.

34. The Trustees do not directly incentivise the investment managers to engage with issuers of equity or debt to improve their financial or non-financial performance. The Trustees expect engagement to be undertaken as appropriate and necessary to meet the objectives of the mandates given to investment managers. CAPITAL STRUCTURE OF INVESTEE COMPANIES 35. Responsibility for monitoring the make-up and development of the capital structure of investee companies is delegated to the investment managers. The Trustees expect the extent to which the investment managers monitor these capital structures to be appropriate to the nature of the mandate. PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT AND INVESTMENT MONITORING 36. The overall investment performance of the Chubb Common Investment Fund is measured monthly using the Global Custodian’s investment performance measurement service. The investment performance of each of the investment managers is measured at least quarterly using the Global Custodian’s investment performance measurement service and by the investment managers themselves. Barnett Waddingham LLP provide the Trustees with quarterly updates on each of the investment managers and will advise the Trustees on strategic investment issues at least once each year. 37. The Trustees also receive written quarterly reports from each investment manager and the Trustees or Secretary aims to meet with each manager as appropriate to discuss their performance, activity and any wider issues. 38. The performance of the Scheme’s investment managers and mandates is assessed over a mixture of shorter and longer term time horizons. Ultimately, the Trustees assess manager performance over a period appropriate to the specific aims of the relevant mandate, and in the context of its intended role within the Trustees’ wider strategy. DURATION OF MANAGER APPOINTMENTS 39. The Trustees do not apply any predetermined duration of appointment with the Scheme’s current investment managers. 40. Each of the existing mandates is open-ended in nature and therefore does not have a specified maturity. 41. The continued suitability of the managers used by the Scheme is reviewed by the Trustees of the Chubb Common Investment Fund on an ongoing basis and also as part of broader strategic reviews undertaken by the Trustees of the Plan.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER COSTS 42. The Trustees acknowledge that portfolio turnover costs can impact on the performance of the investments. The Trustees expect the investment managers to change underlying holdings to an extent necessary to meet the objectives of their mandates. The reasonableness of such turnover will vary by each mandate and will change according to market conditions. 43. The Trustees have not set a specific portfolio turnover target for their overall strategy. Neither have the Trustees prescribed a target for the underlying mandates. 44. The investment managers will provide information on portfolio turnover and associated costs to the Trustees, so that this can be monitored, as appropriate. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST 45. The Trustees maintain a separate conflicts of interest policy and register. Subject to reasonable levels of materiality, these documents record any actual or potential conflicts of interest in relation to investee companies or the investment managers, while also setting out a process for their management. REVIEW OF THIS STATEMENT 46. The Trustees will review this Statement in response to any aspects of the investments detailed above and, in any event, at least annually. Any such review will again be based on expert investment advice. August 2020
